Mapleshade and Maple Audio Cables


Has anyone heard of these cables? I find their websites full of claims to be giant killers. The Mapleshades are very inexpensive and claim to beat out transparent, monster, etc. http://www.mapleshaderecords.com/tweaks/speakercable.html

Using "micro" wire is nothing new. Magnan has been doing it for many, many years. As far as i know, i think that they were the first to "document" just how important wire gauge really was and that the effects of "skin effect", and inductance / capacitance of wires were quite noticeable within the audio range of frequencies. Matthew Polk was also a forerunner in this area also if i remember correctly. Sean

I wish that they had "micro" power cords as well. My DAC just fell over again from the weight of the PC. David
I thought Mapleshade did have Micro power cords? Someone that knows plesae advise us!
I ordered the MS cords but have not yet received them (I was told 2-3 weeks). From the photos the wire itself looks standard size, however the insulation is again of the "Slim Jim" wrapper variety (like plastic sandwich bag material) which will help cut down on the weight. I recall reading papers on the search for the ultimate super conducter in the 70's but don't beleive that it was ever found as far as high current goes anyway (other signal transfers have improved a lot though). I will be using the PC's on both my digital front (transport/DAC) and amp. With breakin and delivery time it is going to take awhile before I can comment on them, plus I can only compare them to HT Pro 11's. Within my price range (and self imposed mass limitation) it was kind of a toss up between MS and Silver Audio's Powerburst PC (which I would also like to try). Has anyone else had experience with the MS power cords?
I own one Silver Audio PowerBurst PC that I use on my Cary 94 preamp. I really like it there. It does a good job with the detail, at least on my system.
